In a reversed history legal case where the United States would seek to bring the law to bear on Korea for having bombed and invaded the United States without cause, bringing death to two million Americans, the International Court of Justice findings and rulings would have without a doubt been similar.

In our reversed history scenario, in a world where powerful aggressor nations could be brought before the law, litigation adjudicated by the International Court of Justice could easily include the following 'cases':

The United States of America versus Iraq - litigation regarding the mass-homicide which took place in one American city the size of Fallujah would have been cited within a nation-wide death toll of more than one million Americans killed, plus a half-million American children dying for world superpower Iraq's multinational blockade of medicines and hospital equipment in between its wars, wars during which Iraqi warplanes bombed out the infrastructure of New York City.  America would prove that it was innocent of any acts, provocation or threats against the government and/or people of the giant nation of Iraq.

The United State of America versus the Dominican Republic - with the US charging homicidal military intervention and a two year occupation of America to prevent the reinstatement of a duly elected and popular US president who had been overthrown by a military coup engineered in elite business circles of the Dominican financial and military superpower.

The United States of America versus Cuba - which would have had US lawyers charging that the intention of international bully Cuba in attacking and invading the US (costing the US nearly one thousand American lives lost during a successful defense) was the overthrow of a revolutionary US government which had freed America from plunder by the predatory investment community of capitalist Cuba, whose citizens are estimated to own nearly half of the world's wealth and resources.

The United States of America versus Panama - over the bombing and invasion which took the lives of approximately one thousand American men, women and children as Panama sought to arrest an accused US drug lord, one who had previously worked for the Panamanian secret service.

The United State of America versus Somalia - the US charging that Somalia, by pretending to help with food distribution when famine struck America, inserted its ground troops and Somali air power in order to back certain America war lords favorable to Somali investments in the US and that since the withdrawal of Somali soldiers, Somalia has used drone aircraft strikes in armed intervention in the midst of an American civil war prolonged by world financial power Somalia using UN troops.

The United States of America versus Grenada - over its invasion of the United  States by Grenadian warships, warplanes and paratroops which took the lives of forty-five American citizens and wounded three-hundred fifty-eight.

The United States versus the Republic of Sudan - over its bombing of the only pharmaceutical factory in the US which served the medical needs of the entire United States population and for the murder of the night-watchman (the Court would reject the justification of collective self-defense maintained by the Republic of Sudan).

The United States of America versus Lebanon - over merciless shelling of coastal mountain communities along the US Eastern seaboard by Lebanese warships stationed offshore in armed interference during an America civil war, said shelling in direct breach of the customary international law regarding force against another state, intervention into the internal affairs of others and violations against another state's sovereignty.

The United States of America versus the Republic of Yemen - whose military is presently drone bombing select targets in America to protect a tyrannical and corrupt US dictator long backed by foreign interests, a dictatorship that Americans would have already overthrown but for the armed interventions and support from world superpower Yemen, now a superpower, having replaced the British Empire whose own colonial armies exploited America for more than a century. 

The United States of America (population 6 million) versus the Great Socialist People's Libyan Arab Jamahiriya (population 350 million) - with the US accusing the single superpower Libya of having used the world-wide satellite reach of Libya's investor-owned media along with that media's power to misshape public opinion by deception and their ability to blackout videos of one million Americans demonstrating in support of their democratic government and its leader in Washington D.C.  As warplanes of Libya's allies, Great Britain and France, were destroying America's small army and brave citizen militias, the Libyan CIA organized and funded an army of thugs, gunmen and known terrorists in pickup trucks with which to massacre all American opposition.
 
In this alternate reality, American lawyers would present irrefutable testimony that Libyan CNN had deceived its international audience into believing that there were large peaceful demonstrations against the American leader that were fired upon when, in fact, there were neither large demonstrations nor any peaceful protestors fired upon (US attorneys would note that there was not one single video or photograph of either in existence). 

During this trial, evidence would be presented of heavily armed mobile gangs, organized by America's enemies abroad, who immediately intimidated local populations and overpowered lightly defended US airports and facilities of municipalities within a few days, savagely murdering more than fifty African American soldiers on the first day alone.  Evidence would show the media of Libya's European allies quickly stopped reporting the draconian hold on the citizenry in cities overrun by the Libyan backed insurgents. 

Recalled verbatim would be the lies of the President of Libya justifying the UN call for Libya, NATO and the international community to protect Americans from their own government, repeating Libyan CNN inventions of the American Army firing on its own civilians and falsehoods of a "bad guy"  American  leader's intention to have the US armed forces (easily retaking the areas overrun), massacre its own citizens. 

Documentation would be presented of Libyan media slandering with disinformation the hero of the American revolution, a man who wrested American oil and other national resources away from British domination, raised the United States of America from the poorest nation on the North American continent to the 53rd highest ranked living standard in the world, one who had provided excellent free health care and education in the most decentralized democracy on Earth while at the same time worked towards the creation of a union of third world nations which had been plundered economically by the industrialized societies of Europe, societies which often have attempted to assassinate the popular commander in chief of the United States of America, a leader always portrayed in Libya media as a madman.

Alternate reality Americans would have reminded the Court that one such assassination attempt by Libyan warplanes took instead one hundred lives of innocent Americans including the American leader's little four year old daughter.  The US would have charged Libya with having organized, paid, equipped, trained and secretly led an army of thugs, gunmen and known terrorists to pose as having grievances.  US attorneys would have pointed out a more immediate media falsity repeated without stop, preposterously comparing this outside arranged attack on a prosperous America prepared from abroad, with recent great spontaneous humanitarian demonstrations of tens or hundreds of thousands of poor demanding jobs and health care from dictators in desperately impoverished third world nations long supported by super wealthy Libya and European investors.
